I did this two years ago. My list changed quite a bit since then. So I decided to kill some time and fill the meme out again. :)

Rules are, you answer the questions by going through your Top 50 Artists on Last.Fm



1. how did you get into 29 (The Maine)?
I honestly can't remember. I think it was one of the bands recommended to me through here and I ended up loving them.

2. what was the first song you ever heard by 22 (We The Kings)?
"Check Yes Juliet"

3. what’s your favorite lyric by 33 (Eisley)?
Don't have a favorite lyric. I suck at remembering lyrics.

Crossroads cause it has all their awesome hit songs. :)

Three

6. what is your favorite song by 50 (The Cars)?
Wow, I love so many songs from them. I guess "Why Can't I Have You"
